Meet the Team

We’re proud to share that Linked Communication is now called Lycali.

This change is more than a new name. It reflects our growth, our values, and our deep commitment to inclusive, person-centred care. Over time, our work has evolved beyond communication to encompass a broad range of therapies and specialist assessments for individuals of all ages.

The name Lycali is deeply personal. It was inspired by our founder, Stephanie Connolly, and her three children, Lyla, Cameron, and Liam who are all neurodivergent and remind us daily that no two people are the same. Each person has their own way of thinking, learning, and being, and their names now form the foundation of ours.

Through Lycali, we aim to support individuals whose experiences don’t always fit the mould, and to celebrate the diversity that makes each person unique.

We remain the same passionate team, now with a name that truly reflects who we are and why we do what we do.

“The calls have helped me to find more space and given me a safe space to discuss and release emotions. Tim's nature and communication is comforting and supportive, he adds thoughts and questions which offer space to analyse and to help growth.”
